well, wanted to take a kick at the can in regards to predicting the exact score of a game.
finally got some time to try this out.
this involves ALOT of luck and a bit of an educated opinion based on certain soccer teams and their current form.
handicapping soccer 101 : LESSON 1
PREDICTING THE EXACT SCORE.
this is NOT for the faint hearted.
record: 0 - 0
today's game we're focusing on:
Southampton (HOME) vs Liverpool
________________________________________
based on current form:
SOUTHAM is undefeated at home. 7 - 0 - 5
Liverpool is a mediocre 4 - 5 - 2 on the road.
i'd like to say that i don't expect southham to lose this game.
that being said let's go over current form of southam at home:
scores in their last 4 home matches 1-0 / 2-1/1-1/2-0/
liverpool on the road: 1-0/1-1/2-1/2-0
wow, looks pretty damn close to the southam scores....but that's just a fluke.
last time these two teams played in southampton the score was 2 - 0 southam
southam SHOULD NOT LOSE this game.
possible outcomes based on data:
southam win 1 - 0 / 2 - 1 / 1 - 1 draw or a 2 - 0 score.
let's place our wagers.
this is just a test, so we'll go small.
Southampton to win 1-0 7.50 x 20 bucks american = 150 bucks
Southampton to win 2-0 11.00 x 20 bucks american= 220 bucks
Southampton to win 2-1 9.00 20 bucks american = 180 bucks
Draw 1-1 6.50 x 20 bucks american = 130 bucks
looking at the odds from s.i.a, they seem to think there's more likely gonna be a 1 - 1 draw or a southampton win of 1 - 0
again, this is based on the data that southam is undefeated at home and liverpool is a mediocre team on the road.
even if we hit ONE of the predicted outcomes we make a small profit (yay, gas money!!!!). Maybe if my system and keen eye (ha.) works out, we may up the units.....
let's see what happens.
